Measure

And praise lavish in its delivery
drops at his doorstep when it all goes well,
as he smiles his smile so famous for its
authenticity; but any man can
be a good man when things go according
to plan - the true measure of a man can
only be seen when it all falls apart.

About the blog

Peace in a Crack Den was created to provide my poetry with a place to call its own outside of Bebo, where it had been going for the previous four or so years.

Bebo, of course, has since died a tragic - though not unexpected - social networking death. Some day, all of the poems which appeared on Bebo will feature here. It is a time consuming process, but it will get done (even if it takes years).

I hope anybody who decides to read these poems enjoys them. Critical feedback is the aim of the game, so criticise away. There's a lot of dross, but I feel like there are some gems in there too.

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to come visit.

Sincerely,

Fran Reilly

UPDATE:

It has taken years, but all of the poems which were originally published on Bebo are now live on this blog; in total, there are 620 poems published on Peace in a Crack Den (go to Poetry A-Z for a complete list).

Given that the last poem was written in 2012, the chances of new content are slim to none; anything written since has been for a private audience. Hopefully you can enjoy what's in place anyway.

Sincerely,

Fran Reilly
